Over the past few weeks my right knee has been bugging me. Forward motion seems fine; turning / twisting seems to create a sharp pain below the knee towards the outside, kind of where the ligaments and bones come together. I'd say it's fine 90% of the time. When I do feel it it's not incredibly painful, just unstable to where I know something's not right. Self diagnosis after viewing all of three youtube videos is something meniscus related.
I think I'm gonna see a doc if possible this week. I'm nine weeks out from what I had hoped would be a marathon PR, with three of the next five weeks being 50 mile weeks. I ran 13 on Saturday; I was fine through seven, then tweaked it again rounding a very gradual corner. Walked it off and ran the last six with zero pain.
I just want to make sure I'm not doing anything catastrophic to it.
